The symptoms of ovarian tumor are not specific and a rare presentation of the tumor is as the content of an inguinal hernia. We reported a case of an 82-year-old woman, diagnosed with breast cancer and with a concomitant hypoecoic adnexal mass at the ecographic exam. The patient was treated with conservative breast surgery and laparotomy. A cystic-solid ovarian lesion was found inside the right inguinal canal. Frozen-section examination was negative for malignancy, and the anatomopathological analysis revealed a borderline ovarian tumor.

PURPOSE: to evaluate the results of treatment to which patients with high grade intraepithelial cervical neoplasia (HSIL) are submitted, as well as their follow-up during pregnancy. METHODS: retrospective study based on the review of the medical report of 30 patients with diagnosis of high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSIL) during pregnancy and attended to at a tertiary hospital in southern Brazil from 1990 to 2002. Diagnosis was performed by colposcopy and biopsy, with repetition of the colposcopy during the pregnancy and after delivery. The diagnoses of regression and progression of lesions were evaluated. RESULTS: from 30 patients, 3 were excluded of the sample because the diagnosis of high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSIL) was not confirmed by the colposcopy with biopsia. Four patients were submitted to treatment during pregnancy, and one of them presented preterm delivery at the 32nd week. Twenty-three patients were submitted to expectant treatment, underwent a new colposcopy and biopsy, and then were submitted to conisation surgery at about the 11th week after the end of pregnancy. In 7.4% of the cases, there was lesion regression in the surgical specimen. CONCLUSIONS: all patients with diagnosis should be submitted to colposcopy and biopsy to exclude the possibility of invasive lesion. The expectant procedure for intraepithelial lesions is the most widely chosen and safe due to the possibility of regression in the postpartum period.
